Socially Relevant Christian Scholarship

About

Most of the time, my favorite ice cream is Hood’s Golden Vanilla. I’m proud to have fostered my daughter’s love of nature by taking her fishing. I can sing most of the numbers from the Broadway production of Les Misérables. I struggle to understand my teenage son. I don’t go anywhere without a book. Even in the moments when I wish my wife would disappear in a puff of smoke, I try desperately to love her more than I love myself. I never claimed that I could sing Les Misérables well. I think everything I write is garbage. I’m moved to tears by Samuel Barber’s Agnus Dei. I miss my grandparents. My favorite hymn is The Old Rugged Cross. My favorite Beatles song is Penny Lane. The best concert I ever attended was Coldplay at The Tabernacle, Atlanta, in 2001. I have spent most of my working life as an employee of the criminal justice system. I own around one thousand books, and I don’t know which one is my favorite. I’m a sinner saved by grace. The two writers who have made me laugh the hardest are David Sedaris and Hunter S. Thompson. I know every word to Tupac’s Hail Mary. I started writing when I was nine. I hate raw tomatoes.
